fix(backport): batch for release-1.7, 2026-11-12 (#5290)

## What this PR does

Backports to `release-1.7` from `main`, picked by the rules of the
[backport
policy](https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/blob/main/docs/release/backports.md)
in merge order. A merged pull request comes as its own commits, picked
with `git cherry-pick -x` so each keeps its author, message and
sign-offs, and a merge commit that carries the original's merge message
with a `Backported-from:` trailer naming it; a squash-merged one comes
as one pick. `backport-batch verify` checks that shape. A pick listed as
changed differs from the commit it came from; `git range-diff
<merge>^1..<merge>^2 <batch merge>^1..<batch merge>^2` shows how. A
conflict or a failing check here is a [backport
task](https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/blob/main/docs/release/backport-tasks/README.md).

fix(backport): batch for release-1.7, 2026-11-09 (#5246)

## What this PR does

Backports to `release-1.7` from `main`, picked by the rules of the
[backport
policy](https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/blob/main/docs/release/backports.md)
in merge order. A merged pull request comes as its own commits, picked
with `git cherry-pick -x` so each keeps its author, message and
sign-offs, and a merge commit that carries the original's merge message
with a `Backported-from:` trailer naming it; a squash-merged one comes
as one pick. `backport-batch verify` checks that shape. A pick listed as
changed differs from the commit it came from; `git range-diff
<merge>^1..<merge>^2 <batch merge>^1..<batch merge>^2` shows how. A
conflict or a failing check here is a [backport
task](https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/blob/main/docs/release/backport-tasks/README.md).

### Release note

```release-note
fix(backupstrategy-controller): the ClickHouse (Altinity) and RabbitMQ backup strategy Pods now run a dedicated `backup-http-client` image (alpine + curl + jq + ca-certificates, non-root, ~7 MB) instead of the 349 MB `platform-migrations` image. Air-gapped mirrors need the new `ghcr.io/cozystack/cozystack/backup-http-client` repository.

fix(e2e): a chainsaw assert in the e2e suites keeps polling through a transient API error such as an etcd leader change, instead of failing the suite long before its timeout.

fix(ci): use GITHUB_TOKEN to start the initial packages build when freezing a release line

fix(etcd): the tenant etcd alert etcdHighNumberOfFailedGRPCRequests now counts only the gRPC codes that the etcd mixin and the platform copy of the alert count, so the Canceled watch streams of a Kubernetes API server that stops no longer fire it on every etcd member.

fix(tcp-balancer): HAProxy now takes its fd and thread caps from the replica's memory and CPU limits instead of the node, so a t1.nano balancer is no longer OOMKilled on nodes with many CPUs. maxconn follows the memory limit at about 16 connections per MiB, 2035 on t1.nano, and the pods roll once on upgrade.

fix(kubernetes): the Proxmox cloud-controller-manager now runs v0.16.1, and the Proxmox CCM and CSI driver images are pinned by digest. The v0.15.0 tag referenced before was re-pushed upstream to a build that panics on start, which left every new Proxmox worker with the uninitialized taint.

fix(marketplace): a tapped repository is pinned to a digest instead of following a mutable tag, so moving the tag upstream no longer changes what runs in the cluster; connect accepts oci://...＠sha256:... and an optional keyless cosign verify policy (anchored to an exact identity and preserved across re-connects), and with verify flags the CLI verifies the signature and pins the verified digest at tap time.

fix(dashboard): tenant name in the tenant list links to its detail page now (where Delete is), and top level tenants get their Edit button back.

fix(cilium): the IPAM migration hook no longer fails with "Argument list too long" on clusters with more than a few nodes, which blocked the cilium upgrade and every package that depends on networking.

fix(kubernetes): the OIDC bootstrap Job no longer fails to start for a tenant cluster with about 240 or more oidc.users, the bindings now come from a ConfigMap the Job mounts.

fix(clickhouse): a RestoreJob now restores the archive its Backup was taken as, not the newest one. New Backups record the archive name, Backups taken before this release are restored best effort from the newest archive stamped no later than their takenAt, with a warning in the restore pod log. A ClickHouse BackupJob created again under a name whose Backup still exists now fails instead of reporting that Backup as its result.

fix(backups): the backup controller now re-renders the Velero BSL, the default backup strategies and the platform bucket's credentials Secret when their S3 endpoint is stale, so after the platform bucket's BucketAccess is re-granted for a new publishing.host, backups move to the new endpoint without forcing releases by hand.

fix(securitygroups): a SecurityGroup with attachments and no rules no longer leaves an invalid CiliumNetworkPolicy behind; its backing policy is now accepted by Cilium and still allows or denies nothing.

fix(postgres): the init script renders the declared databases in a stable order, so an upgrade that leaves the databases unchanged no longer rewrites the init-script Secret.

fix(mariadb-operator): the MariaDB operator now uses the platform's networking.clusterDomain instead of a hard-coded cozy.local, so replication and User/Database/Grant reconciliation work on clusters with a non-default cluster domain.

fix(redis): an instance with `replicas: 1` now runs one Sentinel instead of three, without a Sentinel PodDisruptionBudget; on upgrade, the PDB the operator created earlier is deleted. Instances with two replicas or more are unchanged.

fix(lineage, kubernetes): the virt-launcher pods of Kubernetes worker nodes are now resolved to their Kubernetes application and marked as managed by Cozystack, so a SecurityGroup attached to a Kubernetes cluster now applies to its worker nodes, not only to its control plane.

fix(api): tenant quota admission now counts the parent pool's usage of extended resources and hugepages, so a child tenant can no longer get a share the parent has already used. After upgrading, updates to existing tenants may be rejected if their quota for these resources exceeds the parent's remaining budget. This includes updates that leave the quota unchanged.

fix(postgres): a Postgres BackupJob now fails as soon as its CloudNativePG Backup fails, with the recorded error, instead of after 30 minutes, and a BackupJob waiting on a CloudNativePG Backup reports a WaitingForCNPGBackup condition with the Backup's phase.

fix(postgres): databases now refuses the PostgreSQL system databases postgres, template0 and template1, and the init job never runs DROP DATABASE on them. A system database a previous version took over is handed back to the superuser on the next upgrade (event trigger removed, ownership and public schema restored, its <db>_admin and <db>_readonly roles dropped). A release that declares one of them must remove the entry before upgrading.

fix(mariadb): a MariaDB BackupJob or RestoreJob whose operator Job failed now ends Failed instead of Succeeded, and a failed backup no longer creates a Ready Backup without an archive. Backups created by failed runs before this fix are not removed; restoring from one can fail or select another dump from the shared prefix.

fix(kubernetes, monitoring): the vmagent of tenant Kubernetes clusters now writes to the tenant's vminsert and labels series with the owning tenant instead of `cozy-monitoring`. Previously no tenant cluster metric reached the tenant's Monitoring.

chore(release): promote v1.7.0-rc.3 -> v1.7.0 (#5161)

Promotes `v1.7.0-rc.3` to stable `v1.7.0` without rebuilding containers.
Their digests remain bit-for-bit what passed rc e2e; the tag-rewritten
packages tree is re-serialized as a temporary OCI candidate and pinned
here by digest. On merge, pull-requests-release.yaml verifies that
candidate against this tree before creating the write-once `v1.7.0` tag,
retagging the candidate and container digests to `v1.7.0` (+`:latest`
when this is the newest stable), publishing the stable cozy-installer
chart, and publishing the release. Do NOT squash-merge (decision B): the
stable tag must attach to a real merge commit.

✅ RC full e2e was verified for `v1.7.0-rc.3` before promotion.

ℹ️ E2E already ran against the immutable rc, so this promote PR does not
run E2E by default. A maintainer may add the `full-e2e` label to run the

[Backport release-1.6] fix(tcp-balancer): rename backends and pin HAP…

…roxy so the chart starts on 3.3+ (#4516)

## What this PR does

Backports #4366 to release-1.6. All three original commits applied
without conflicts and retain their cherry-pick references.

HAProxy is pinned to 3.4.4 and backend names no longer collide with
frontend names. An empty whitelist leaves Kubernetes and Talos frontends
unfiltered. Enabling whitelistHTTP without a whitelist fails rendering.

Validation passed with 9 Helm tests, five rendered configurations
checked by HAProxy 3.4.4, and package generation without changes. The
old chart reproduces the name collision. Removing only the HTTP reject
rule makes the regression test fail.

[Backport release-1.6] fix(api): keep a suspended HelmRelease suspend…

…ed across an app update (#4928)

## What this PR does

Backport of #4411 to `release-1.6`.

`REST.Update` rebuilds the HelmRelease from the Application and writes
it back whole, and Application has no suspension, so every edit through
the API resumes a release that an operator or a controller suspended.
The CNPG restore driver depends on it: it suspends the target release,
patches the Postgres app through this API, purges the Cluster and
resumes only after the purge, so the next render lands
`bootstrap.recovery` on an empty namespace. When the patch resumes the
release, helm-controller upgrades right away, the Cluster gets rendered
while the purge still runs, the driver deletes it, and nothing renders
it again because the values don't change anymore. RestoreJob stays
`Running` until its deadline.

Why it is needed on this line now. The race was hidden by timing: Update
dropped `finalizers.fluxcd.io`, helm-controller spent its first pass
putting it back and requeued, and that delay usually let the purge
finish first. #4683 and #4919 keep the finalizer across the write, so
the delay is gone. After they landed, `postgres-2-backup-roundtrip`
failed on v1.6.5-rc.1
(https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/actions/runs/38583543706) and in
two earlier PR runs, each time stuck at `TargetPurged: Cluster ...
deleted; awaiting chart-rendered re-bootstrap`. In the snapshot of the
rc run the HelmRelease of the restore target upgraded to v2 at
16:16:13Z, the Cluster was deleted at 16:16:22Z, and no Cluster of the
target exists afterwards.

The cherry-pick conflicted only in comments of `REST.Update`, where this
branch already has the metadata carry-over. The two `Spec.Suspend`
assignments merged unchanged and the comments read as they do on main.

### Validation

- `go build ./...` is clean, `go vet ./pkg/registry/...` is clean, `go
test ./pkg/registry/... ./internal/backupcontroller/...` passes.
- Removing either `Spec.Suspend` assignment turns its test red:
`TestUpdate_PreservesSuspend` for the first write,
`TestUpdate_RefreshesSuspendOnConflictRetry` for the conflict retry.
- Not run here: the restore round trip on a live cluster, the E2E of
this PR covers it.

### Downstream repositories

It changes how the aggregated API writes the HelmRelease back, no
downstream repository restates that.

### Release note
